Tigers starter Armando Galarraga was sent to the minors Tuesday night after allowing three runs on 10 hits in 6 2/3 innings against the Orioles.
Galarraga had an 8.79 ERA over his past three starts.
Detroit general manager Dave Dombrowski said Galarraga would make a July 15 start for Toledo before returning to the Tigers to start again July 20.
"I don't want to talk to you guys," Galarraga said.
He just missed a perfect game a little more than a month ago when first base umpire Jim Joyce missed a call.
